Megan Ellis Artwork
The Friends of St James' Church have been gifted both some of local artist Meg Ellis's original artwork and also high quality Giclee prints in order to raise funds to provide something toward the future of the church.
Meg has a fascinating background: although trained as an art teacher, for many years Meg worked in conjunction with husband Bernard Ellis producing/reproducing early stringed musical instruments and also classical 'steamer' furniture. They lived and worked together at The Forge, on the corner of Castle Street in Wigmore.
On closing those businesses following the death of Bernard, Meg resumed her interest in creating her own art works. Never one to waste materials, Meg repurposed no longer required wood offcuts to create mixed media artwork to great effect.
In July we will have this artwork displayed for sale in St James' Church at the Anne O'Brien lecture. Pricing for each item will be recommended and can be reserved prior to the physical sale event.
